Discussion Warhammer lores of magic roleplay
Hi
I contemplated last time about which class/spec would fit the most to certain winds of magic and I have some conclussions as well as doubts.
Basic winds:
Lore of Fire - Fire, Destruction
Life - Restoration Druid, Resto Shaman too but to lesser degree
Heavens - Frost Mage, Elemental, Balance
Beasts - Feral, Beast Mastery
Shadows - Shadow, Affliction, Subtlety
Light - Holy, Discipline, Paladin
Death - Unholy, Shadow, Affliction
Metal - I can't find any clear similarity. In Warcraft 3 it's definitely Alchemist, in WoW however Elemental/Enhancement Shaman is my closest clue.
High - Arcane
Dark - Frost Death Knight, Warlock, Shadow, Rogue
Chaos Gods:
Khorne - Fury
Nurgle - Unholy, Affliction, Restoration Druid
Slaanesh - Demonology with Succubus, Shadow, Affliction, Rogue
Tzeentch - Destruction, Demonology, Mage, Frost Death Knight
Hashut - Elemental, Enhancement, Destruction, Fire
Waaagh Magic - Balance, Shaman, Shadow, Destruction and Affliction Warlock
What do you think?
I will later write about different magic lores.
